ABERTIS ACQUIRES 4.58% STAKE OF PORTUGUESE CONCESSION COMPANY BRISA

BARCELONA, SPAIN--(Marketwire - November 23, 2007) - With this, Abertis has raised its stake in
Brisa to 14.58%

- The acquisition was made on 14 November at market prices and notified to
Brisa's chairman upon completion of the transaction. The increase in the
shareholding did not exceed any threshold requiring disclosure.

- The company seized the opportunity provided by the sale of a block of
shares. Alongside the strategic logic and fit, the investment, which is in
line with the company's growth plans, reinforces abertis' position in the
Portuguese toll road sector, where it has been present since 1998 through
Auto-Estradas do Atlântico (AEA) and since 2002 through Brisa.

- The strategic agreement between Abertis and Brisa lost effect in December
2005 when Brisa lowered its stake in Abertis (to 1%) to well below the
minimum agreed level. Accordingly, since then both companies have been
operating independently.

- abertis reiterates its confidence in Brisa's future and its commitment to
the stable relationship maintained since 2002.

Barcelona, 23 November 2007. The abertis Group has acquired 4.58% stake of
Portuguese toll road concessionaire Brisa for EUR 272.2 Mn, equivalent to a
price of EUR 9.85 per share. The transaction, carried out on 14 November by
Abertis Portugal SGPS, the Group's Portuguese unit, raises the company's
shareholding to 14.58%. Brisa is Portugal's leading concession company,
managing more than 1,100 kilometres of toll roads.

This increase in abertis' stake in Brisa is designed to maintain co-
operation between the companies and the stability of Brisa's shareholder
core, and it was notified to the Portuguese company's chairman.

abertis first bought into Brisa in 2002, when it was called Acesa
Infraestructuras, acquiring a 10% stake for EUR 309 Mn. Brisa's shares are
listed on the Lisbon Stock Exchange. The company's market cap stands at
around EUR 6,000 Mn.

The sale of up to 1% of Brisa's shareholding in abertis at the end of 2005
effectively meant the end of the pact in force since 2002, when the
companies agreed to maintain cross shareholdings. Since the sale, both
abertis -which has held a stable position in Brisa- and Brisa have been
operating independently, as seen by the groups' expansion in different
markets (e.g., the US, Brazil and Italy) and by Brisa's shareholder
structure.

Brisa's main shareholders are the Mello Group, with more than 29% of the
company's capital, abertis and the Babcock & Brown Group (Australia), with
a 10% shareholding.

As a global infrastructure operator, abertis feels free to continue its
expansion, while complying with standards of ethical behaviour and
transparency relative to the market and other industry operators.

As well as its indirect presence in the toll road sector through its
shareholding in Brisa, abertis also operates car and logistics parks in
Portugal. In car parks the company operates through Spel, a subsidiary of
saba, which manages more than 16,000 parking places in six cities. In
logistics parks, highlights include the project for a new platform that
abertis logística will build in Vilafranca de Xira, 25 kilometres from
Lisbon.
